The "Power of Choice" with Sylvie Di Giusto

Hi This is Brad Weisman - Click Here to Send Me a Text MessageWhat if everything you've been taught about positive thinking is only half right? Dr. Noah St. John, known worldwide as "the father of afformations," is revolutionizing the way we approach mindset transformation with a simple yet profound discovery: the power of asking empowering questions.During this insightful conversation, Dr. St. John reveals why traditional affirmations leave 75% of users more frustrated than before—and introduces his groundbreaking alternative that works with your brain's natural functioning rather than against it. Rather than repeating statements you don't believe, "affOrmations" harness the brain's automatic response to questions, creating powerful shifts in your subconscious programming without resistance.Drawing from his personal journey from poverty to becoming a highly sought-after coach, Dr. St. John shares how this technique forms the foundation of his wider "Power Habit System"—a comprehensive approach used by his clients to achieve remarkable breakthroughs. Through compelling case studies, he demonstrates how addressing the hidden "head trash" and "success anorexia" that lurk in our subconscious can lead to extraordinary results, including one client who grew their business from 7 figures to $20 million in just 18 months.Beyond theory, Dr. St. John provides actionable insights into recognizing and overcoming the invisible barriers that keep us stuck at the same level year after year. His approach isn't about working harder—it's about removing the internal obstacles that prevent you from achieving what you're truly capable of. Whether you're a business owner hitting an income ceiling, a real estate professional seeking breakthrough results, or simply someone looking to reach your full potential, these powerful yet simple techniques offer a path to the success you've been searching for.Ready to discover what's been holding you back and how to break through?

Hi This is Brad Weisman - Click Here to Send Me a Text MessageOur monthly Real Estate Guest, Pete Heim, joins Brad Weiman to chat about all things Real Estate!! The gap between local and national real estate trends is widening dramatically, creating confusion for homebuyers and sellers trying to navigate today's market. We cut through the noise to reveal what's really happening versus the headlines you're seeing in national media.What's creating these regional disparities? We explore how states like Florida, Texas, and Louisiana face unique challenges with insurance costs and changing migration patterns that skew national averages. Meanwhile, the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic regions continue to thrive, with areas like Alexandria absorbing a staggering 4,500 new listings due to pent-up demand.Perhaps most illuminating is our deep dive into recessions and real estate. Contrary to popular belief, recessions historically don't mean falling home prices. Looking at data since 1980, only the 2008 financial crisis saw significant housing value declines—a unique situation caused by a lending crisis and over-inventory that doesn't exist today. Even better news? Every recession since 1980 has triggered lower mortgage rates, which could bring relief to today's buyers facing rates in the mid-6% range.We also tackle local challenges around housing affordability and workforce availability, strategic pricing considerations for sellers in today's market, and predictions about interest rate fluctuations throughout 2025. Whether you're looking to buy, sell, or simply understand the real estate dynamics shaping our community, this episode offers the local perspective you won't find in national headlines. ---Welcome to The Brad Weisman Show, where we dive into the world of real estate, real life, and everything in between with your host, Brad Weisman! 🎙️ Join us for candid conversations, laughter, and a fresh take on the real world.

Hi This is Brad Weisman - Click Here to Send Me a Text MessageTrust is the invisible foundation upon which all meaningful relationships are built. But how do you establish it quickly, especially in professional settings where time is limited? This deeply personal exploration reveals why your knowledge and experience matter far less than your ability to connect authentically with others.Drawing from 33 years in real estate and a childhood spent constantly relocating, I share the profound realization that changed my approach to business relationships: "My experience and knowledge is only as good as your trust in it." This simple truth explains why newer professionals sometimes win business over seasoned veterans—they may know less, but they've mastered the art of building trust.The distinction between merely meeting someone and truly discovering them lies at the heart of meaningful connection. While we meet dozens of people daily—in elevators, at networking events, in grocery store aisles—discovery happens only when we approach others with spontaneous, authentic curiosity. It's not about running through a mental checklist of questions; it's about genuinely caring about the answers.Different personality types require different trust-building approaches. An engineer might need precise data points before trusting your expertise, while an artist might connect through shared values and emotional resonance. Understanding these nuances allows you to customize your approach while remaining authentic.The path to trust begins with consistent follow-through. Each time you deliver on a promise—whether arriving on time or completing a task by the deadline you set—you earn a "trust point." These accumulate over time, creating a foundation of reliability that's essential for deeper connection.Have you been focusing too much on showcasing your knowledge rather than building genuine connections? Are you meeting people or truly discovering them? Let's explore how shifting your focus from experience to relationship-building might transform your personal and professional interactions. ---Welcome to The Brad Weisman Show, where we dive into the world of real estate, real life, and everything in between with your host, Brad Weisman! 🎙️ Join us for candid conversations, laughter, and a fresh take on the real world.

Hi This is Brad Weisman - Click Here to Send Me a Text MessageWhat if looking good and feeling good were two sides of the same coin? In this eye-opening conversation with Mary Kelly and Jemika Sivak from Skin Sanctuary Med Spa and Integrative Health, we dive deep into the fascinating world where beauty treatments meet functional medicine.The duo shatters common misconceptions about aesthetic procedures like Botox, explaining how these treatments have evolved far beyond Hollywood celebrities to become accessible options for everyday wellness. You'll discover the science behind collagen stimulation, learning how innovative techniques like PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) use your body's own healing mechanisms to rejuvenate skin and even restore hair. Their strategic approach focuses not on freezing expressions but on enhancing natural features while preventing signs of aging.But this conversation goes much deeper than skin deep. We explore the revolutionary concept of "health span" versus "lifespan," addressing why so many people spend their retirement years managing preventable chronic conditions instead of thriving. Jemika breaks down the functional medicine approach that looks at root causes rather than symptoms, explaining the crucial connection between gut health and everything from mental clarity to immune function. Most shocking is their revelation that the "Four Horsemen" of modern health—heart disease, cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, and type 2 diabetes—are up to 80% preventable through lifestyle choices.Whether you're curious about red light therapy's ability to recharge your cellular batteries or wondering about the real story behind weight loss medications like GLP-1 agonists, this episode delivers practical wisdom without judgment. The experts emphasize that perfection isn't necessary—making healthy choices just 80% of the time can dramatically improve your quality of life. Ready to reimagine your approach to aging and wellness? This conversation might just change how you think about the connection between looking good, feeling good, and living well.  #botox #glp-1 #guthealth #bradweisman #skinsantuarymedspa  We know self tanners.

Hi This is Brad Weisman - Click Here to Send Me a Text MessageKathryn Lehman's path from social worker to judicial candidate reveals a professional journey shaped by genuine concern for community welfare and justice. After witnessing courtroom proceedings while advocating for troubled teens, Lehman realized her calling extended beyond social work into the legal realm—prompting her to attend law school at night while maintaining her full-time position.This unique foundation gives Lehman something increasingly rare in our judicial system: perspective from both sides of the courtroom. Having spent five years as a public defender before transitioning to nearly nine years in the district attorney's office, she brings balanced insight to her candidacy for Berks County Common Pleas Judge. As supervisor of the drug task force, she has prosecuted some of the county's most dangerous offenders, including securing convictions in the largest fentanyl seizure in county history.What distinguishes Lehman's candidacy is her unwavering commitment to applying the law fairly while understanding the human elements behind each case. "When you are doing the right thing, you can't worry about those things," she notes when discussing difficult decisions, emphasizing that integrity must guide judicial action even when decisions might be unpopular. This philosophy has earned her bipartisan endorsements from prominent figures across the political spectrum, including District Attorney John Adams and State Representative Eric Weaknecht.The primary election on May 20th presents Berks County voters with an opportunity to elect someone uniquely qualified for the bench—the only candidate with extensive trial experience for what is fundamentally a trial judge position. Consider supporting Kathryn Lehman, whose blend of legal expertise, practical courtroom experience, and compassionate understanding offers the balanced approach our judicial system needs.  We know self tanners.

Hi This is Brad Weisman - Click Here to Send Me a Text MessageDiving deep into the often misunderstood real estate landscape, Pete Heim and Brad Weisman separate fact from fiction about our current housing market. This eye-opening conversation tackles the persistent confusion between today's inventory crisis and the 2008 financial meltdown, providing clarity with hard data rather than social media panic.Discover why the mid-Atlantic region continues to outperform the rest of the country with a 0.8% value increase while western markets decline. The hosts unpack fascinating statistics about pricing strategy, revealing that homes sell for 100% of asking price in the first four weeks, but only 94% after 17+ weeks on market – making a compelling case for accurate pricing from day one.Perhaps most compelling is their breakdown of how housing has performed through six past recessions, with values increasing in four of them, decisively debunking the myth that economic downturns automatically mean falling home prices. The episode also explores encouraging trends in the Home Demand Index (rising from 65 to 71) and interest rates declining faster than forecasted.For baby boomers sitting on substantial equity and millennials eager to enter the market, this episode provides practical insights on timing and strategy. Whether you're buying, selling, or simply trying to understand market dynamics, this data-driven conversation cuts through the noise with expert analysis and actionable information.Ready to make smarter real estate decisions?

Hi This is Brad Weisman - Click Here to Send Me a Text MessageWhat happens when a finance guy, a violin maker, and an attorney join forces to solve a simple but universal problem? The answer is Bro Glo – a revolutionary men's self-tanner that's challenging stereotypes and changing how men approach personal care.When Jaron found himself being nicknamed "mayonnaise" during his honeymoon because of his pale complexion, he discovered that existing self-tanners were designed for women – complete with feminine scents, unnecessary dyes, and the dreaded orange tint. Together with his friends Joe and Tommy, they set out to create something better: a self-tanner specifically formulated for men that delivers natural results without the stigma.Starting with just $937 and 200 units of face tanner, Bro Glow has grown exponentially through authentic marketing and a product that actually works. Their refreshingly honest approach on TikTok resonated with men who previously felt uncomfortable about using self-tanner. From hand-labeling bottles in a garage to appearing on Shark Tank (where they received offers from all five Sharks), their journey exemplifies entrepreneurial spirit at its finest.What makes Bro Glow unique is their commitment to authenticity. Their water-based formula avoids the oily feel men typically dislike, while delivering subtle results that prompt comments like "Did you go somewhere this weekend?" rather than "Why are you orange?" The trio balances running Bro Glow with their day jobs – one in investments, one running a violin shop, and one working as an attorney – creating a perfect mix of skills that complements their business.Mark Cuban recognized Bro Glo's potential immediately, securing a strategic partnership that promises to take the brand to new heights. With plans to expand their product line and reach more customers, Bro Glo isn't just selling self-tanner – they're breaking down barriers in men's personal care and proving that sometimes the simplest ideas make the biggest impact.Try Bro Glo for yourself and join the revolution that's helping men everywhere say goodbye to being "mayonnaise" and hello to a natural, confidence-boosting  We know self tanners.
